Chapter 897: Chapter 897: A Familiar Scene
Ji Yunhuan listened to Qi’s mother’s words and said, "I didn’t do anything. Ms. Cheng wants to leave, and it has nothing to do with me. I never said anything about wanting her to go."
Qi’s mother looked at Ji Yunhuan, feeling that sometimes she could be too willful and not consider the bigger picture. So she wanted to persuade her, "Nothing else matters now; Qi Cheng is the most important. If he likes Cheng Yanxi, just let her stay. Nothing will happen between them. Qi Cheng has always liked you the most, he’s just forgotten now because he lost his memory."
Ji Yunhuan didn’t say anything. Qi’s mother’s words made her uncomfortable because she had been trying hard to be a good wife, hadn’t she?
What more do they want from her now?
Bai Liyan came down from upstairs and, seeing the scene, said to Qi’s mother, "I was the one who asked Cheng Yanxi to leave."
Qi’s mother turned her gaze to Bai Liyan, who explained, "When I was on good terms with Qi Cheng, I knew he didn’t like Cheng Yanxi, so I said some unpleasant things because I didn’t want to see that woman around Qi Cheng."
Upon hearing this, Qi’s mother sighed, "It was hard for Qi Cheng to survive, and the most important thing is for him to get better. I just hope everyone can be understanding. I’m not blaming anyone."
Ji Yunhuan stood up and said, "I’ll go check on Ruirui."
She knew Qi’s mother wanted to explain, but she didn’t know what to say.
Sometimes, no matter what you say, it’s wrong.
Upstairs, Cheng Yanxi looked at Qi Cheng and thought about how he came to find her and bring her back, which made her very happy.
Actually, she was reluctant to leave, subconsciously feeling that Qi Cheng would come looking for her.
She looked at Qi Cheng, her eyes filled with a smile, "Do you really not care about them? Before you lost your memory, everyone knew you liked Ji Yunhuan. Now that you’ve forgotten her, she must be very sad."
"Why do you always have to mention her?" Qi Cheng’s voice was filled with discontent.
"Do you hate her?" Cheng Yanxi asked unexpectedly, feeling a bit happy. If Qi Cheng hated Ji Yunhuan, it meant she had a chance.
Qi Cheng frowned. When he went to persuade Cheng Yanxi, he merely felt he couldn’t be without her, not thinking about Ji Yunhuan at all.
Now hearing Cheng Yanxi mention Ji Yunhuan again, a feeling of irritability surged up. He responded with a "Hmm."
Cheng Yanxi happily leaned into Qi Cheng’s arms, "Qi Cheng, for me, the happiest thing is to have you by my side. It feels like we’re back in our dating days."
"Hmph." A cold voice suddenly interrupted, and the happy atmosphere immediately cooled down. Yangyang appeared out of nowhere, angrily looking at Cheng Yanxi, "Want to be with my dad? Have you asked for my opinion?"
Cheng Yanxi couldn’t help but smile at his serious expression, "Yangyang, you’re so cute!"
Yangyang frowned and looked at Qi Cheng, "You really don’t want my mom? Then I’ll take her to find me a new dad!"
"..." Qi Cheng looked at Yangyang. Even without any memories now, Yangyang’s words inexplicably made him uncomfortable.
Cheng Yanxi didn’t notice Qi Cheng’s strange reaction, only thinking Yangyang was amusing.
In the evening, Ji Yunhuan had just finished eating and went upstairs to see Qi Cheng standing there, looking at her with a complicated expression.
Ji Yunhuan averted her eyes and was about to leave when Qi Cheng stopped her, "I have something to ask you."
"What?" Despite still minding his earlier behavior, Ji Yunhuan stopped in her tracks.
Qi Cheng took two steps toward Ji Yunhuan, closing the distance between them. Ji Yunhuan felt her heart start to beat uneasily again as she heard Qi Cheng ask, "Why did we get divorced?"
Ji Yunhuan frowned, "Divorced?"
Although they weren’t married, the divorce matter had long been forgotten. She hadn’t expected him to bring it up now.
"Why are you asking this?" Ji Yunhuan asked coldly, feeling that his question had some ill intent.
Qi Cheng didn’t respond, and Ji Yunhuan asked again, "Did Cheng Yanxi tell you this?"
"It’s got nothing to do with her," Qi Cheng denied.
It really had nothing to do with Cheng Yanxi. He had heard about the divorce matter from others, because Ji Yunhuan kept claiming she was his wife. That’s why he asked. When he found out there was a divorce, he was relieved. But now, the inexplicable feelings for Ji Yunhuan were troubling him.
Ji Yunhuan said, "Then why are you asking this?"
Qi Cheng asked, "Because you keep saying things in front of me that bother me a lot, so I want to understand what exactly you’re trying to do."
Ji Yunhuan listened to Qi Cheng’s words, "What did I do?"
She had clearly done nothing, yet he found it troubling?
Qi Cheng didn’t say anything, and Ji Yunhuan found it amusing, "Because you don’t want to hear it, I’ve restrained myself from saying a lot of things. So now what?"
"Forget it." Sensing Ji Yunhuan’s unhappiness, Qi Cheng was ready to leave, but Ji Yunhuan chose to grab his hand.
Qi Cheng turned to look at this woman with no reservations, and Ji Yunhuan kissed his lips immediately—
Qi Cheng was stunned, clearly wanting to push her away, yet his hands wouldn’t move.
Ji Yunhuan finished the self-directed kiss and released him, "Is this what you meant by bothersome?"
Qi Cheng looked at this enchantress, feeling she was really good at being seductive. Feeling guilty, he pushed her away, "Why do you always do this..."
"What, afraid Cheng Yanxi will get mad?" Ji Yunhuan asked with a raised eyebrow.
The more he tried to distance himself from her, the less she let him get his wish.
"Are you doing this on purpose?" Qi Cheng’s face looked a bit unpleasant; he hated women who played games.
Unless he liked the person, then he would think whatever she did was right.
Ji Yunhuan deliberately wrapped her arms around his neck, "Yes, I’m doing it on purpose."
Qi Cheng seemed startled by her words, staring at her with wide eyes.
His innocent gaze softened Ji Yunhuan’s heart. She spoke gently, "Qi Cheng, I don’t know how you see me now, I just know, I really miss you..."
She didn’t look into his cold eyes, whether he disliked or hated her, she just wanted to lean on him like this for a while.
Her shallow breathing brushed against his skin, and Qi Cheng didn’t move.
He had an illusion that such a scene seemed to have happened more than once before his eyes.
He lowered his head, looking at the woman in his arms, gently raising his hand to embrace her...
Cheng Yanxi’s voice suddenly came, "Qi Cheng, time to take your medicine."
Cheng Yanxi had just come out of Qi Cheng’s room, and seeing the scene, she paused for a moment, quickly looking away as if she hadn’t seen it, "Hurry up."
Seeing Cheng Yanxi return to her room, Qi Cheng felt as if he had done something wrong, grabbing Ji Yunhuan’s arm to push her away...
Ji Yunhuan saw him being called away by Cheng Yanxi and enthusiastically responded. She forcefully grabbed his hand, "Do you trust her so much?"
